The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.

Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ. You will have to register before you can post or view full size images in the forums.

The finished Everlandia Maps

Okay, here is the first of the maps for my and my friend's world. This is from my half of the world, the Everlandias. The image below is less than half the size of the full image. The full sized image can be found here http://lonewandererd.deviantart.com/...llia-136539425. Careful when zooming in, for it is big.

Enjoy.

People come and people go. I walk amongst them, I see their faces; but none see mine. I pass them in the streets but nary a glance is spared my way, for what interest would they have in a Wanderer? Not of this world... Forever Alone... Forever Wandering... LoneWandererD...

Have you tried looking at the full sized image through the link, that might help you to make out some of the labels.

so, I noticed you made it in photoshop. question is how? did you follow one of the wonderful tut's here? Offhand it looks like Acension's atlas style. With a pretty cool glow effect on the coasts like a lighting effect maybe. It's sooooo green. Seem's unnatural, but that's probably a world dynamic.

You should totally put up a tutorial cuz this map is awesome and HUGE!

*edit*
This should be a first step for all GM's. A good map makes a good adventure as well as gives additional idea's along the way.
